Nick Fallon, private investigator, gets a rude awakening when his past life unexpectedly catches up with him. Four years earlier, Nick, then a member of the Pittsburgh Police Department, was instrumental in arresting Francisco Garcia, a drug dealer and cold-blooded murderer. Now, Garcia has escaped from death-row, intent on making good his threat of reprisal for the death of his son in the shootout that brought down his notorious empire---a confrontation that also claimed the life of Nick's close friend, Sam Valance. Nick, only too aware of Garcia's ruthless and cunning tactics, fears for the safety of his family and his lover, Eric Jamieson. Nick knows in order to protect those he loves he cannot, for one moment afford to let down his guard, until Garcia is either apprehended---or dead. A Deadly Game is an erotic thrill ride, filled with danger, excitement and suspense.

2.0 A Deadly Game by J.P. Bowie
This one seemed phoned-in to me. Granted, I am picky about my romance-thrillers and want them to work as thrillers and not just as romances. This one didn't for me. The perilous situations were repetitive and required the hero to be both very dumb and amazingly lucky. The subplot with the psychiatri...

First (due to the title), I put this on my mm-mystery shelf. BUT, after I'm finished, I must put it on my mm-romance instead. Why? Because I don't think there is a mystery here. The readers will know from upfront, who the bad guy is, what he is planning to do, and actually, I think almost half of th...
